Multiplication or division of a vector by a scalar will change only the magnitude of the vector. If the scalar is negative, the sense of the vector will change so that it acts in the opposite sense. If vectors are collinear, the resultant is simply the algebraic or scalar addition. The components form the sides of the parallelogram and the resultant is the diagonal. Resultant F1 FR b F2 To find the components of a force along any two axes, extend lines from the head of the force, parallel to the axes, to form the components.
To obtain the components of the resultant, show how the forces add by tip-to-tail using the triangle rule, and then use the law of cosines and the law of sines to calculate their values.
The x, y, z components of u represent cos a, cos b, cos g. To find the resultant of a concurrent force system, express each force as a Cartesian vector and add the i, j, k components of all the forces in the system. The easiest way to formulate the components of a position vector is to determine the distance and direction that one must travel along the x, y, and z directions—going from the tail to the head of the vector.
The force can then be expressed as a Cartesian vector. If A and B are expressed in Cartesian vector form, then the dot product is the sum of the products of their x, y, and z components. The dot product can be used to determine the angle between A and B. The dot product is also used to determine the projected component of a vector A onto an axis aa defined by its unit vector ua.

What is the length of the cord? In this chapter we will study equilibrium for a particle and show how these ideas can be used to calculate the forces in cables used to hold suspended loads.
Not only is Eq. Since the force system satisfies Eq. Consequently, the particle indeed moves with constant velocity or remains at rest.
A drawing that shows the particle with all the forces that act on it is called a free-body diagram FBD. Before presenting a formal procedure as to how to draw a free-body diagram, we will first consider two types of connections often encountered in particle equilibrium problems.
If a linearly elastic spring or cord of undeformed length l0 is used to support a particle, the length of the spring will change in direct proportion to the force F acting on it, Fig. For example, if the spring in Fig. Cables and Pulleys. Unless otherwise stated throughout this book, except in Sec. In Chapter 5, it will be shown that the tension force developed in a continuous cable which passes over a frictionless pulley must have a constant magnitude to keep the cable in equilibrium.
Hence, for any angle u, shown in Fig. To construct a free-body diagram, the following three steps are necessary. Draw Outlined Shape. Show All Forces. Indicate on this sketch all the forces that act on the particle. These forces can be active forces, which tend to set the particle in motion, or they can be reactive forces which are the result of the constraints or supports that tend to prevent motion. Identify Each Force. The forces that are known should be labeled with their proper magnitudes and directions.
Letters are used to represent the magnitudes and directions of forces that are unknown. By drawing a free-body diagram of the bucket we can understand why this is so. This diagram shows that there are only two forces acting on the bucket, namely, its weight W and the force T of the cable. The 5-kg plate is suspended by two straps A and B. To find the force in each strap we should consider the free-body diagram of the plate. As noted, the three forces acting on it form a concurrent force system.
Draw a free-body diagram of the sphere, the cord CE, and the knot at C. By inspection, there are only two forces acting on the sphere, namely, its weight, 6 kg 9.
The free-body diagram is shown in Fig. Cord CE. When the cord CE is isolated from its surroundings, its free-body diagram shows only two forces acting on it, namely, the force of the sphere and the force of the knot, Fig. Notice that FCE shown here is equal but opposite to that shown in Fig. The knot at C is subjected to three forces, Fig. As required, the free-body diagram shows all these forces labeled with their magnitudes and directions.
It is important to recognize that the weight of the sphere does not directly act on the knot. Instead, the cord CE subjects the knot to this force. For equilibrium, these forces must sum to produce a zero force resultant, i. When applying each of the two equations of equilibrium, we must account for the sense of direction of any component by using an algebraic sign which corresponds to the arrowhead direction of the component along the x or y axis.
It is important to note that if a force has an unknown magnitude, then the arrowhead sense of the force on the free-body diagram can be assumed. Then if the solution yields a negative scalar, this indicates that the sense of the force is opposite to that which was assumed. For example, consider the free-body diagram of the particle subjected to the two forces shown in Fig. Here it is assumed that the unknown force F acts to the right to maintain equilibrium.
Here the negative sign indicates that F must act to the left to hold the particle in equilibrium, Fig. Free-Body Diagram. Equations of Equilibrium. The ring will not move, or will move with constant velocity, provided the summation of these forces along the x and along the y axis equals zero. If one of the three forces is known, the magnitudes of the other two forces can be obtained from the two equations of equilibrium.
Its free-body diagram is shown in Fig. The magnitudes of TA and TC are unknown, but their directions are known. Substituting this into Eq. NOTE: The accuracy of these results, of course, depends on the accuracy of the data, i. For most engineering work involving a problem such as this, the data as measured to three significant figures would be sufficient. Each rope can withstand a maximum force of 10 kN before it breaks.

Cable AD lies in the x—y plane and cable AC lies in the x—z plane. The connection at A is chosen for the equilibrium analysis since the cable forces are concurrent at this point. By inspection, each force can easily be resolved into its x, y, z components, and therefore the three scalar equations of equilibrium can be used. NOTE: Since the results for all the cable forces are positive, each cable is in tension; that is, it pulls on point A as expected, Fig.
